 Thanksgiving 2025 -Please Share 

To friends and to loved ones

So dear yet so far 

A Thanksgiving greeting

In the way that things are

Challenges rampant in the nation we love

Not sure what will happen

When push comes to shove

A time for Thanksgiving

At this time of the year

In a climate of turmoil

And a frisson of fear

Many different labels around our dinner tables

Opinions may be shared most ardently 

But despite it all, we’re living 

At the time we call Thanksgiving

And there’s more connecting us than we can see

Entanglement that’s quantum

Like a cosmic kind of tom-tom

Sending thoughts of love to others cross the seas

May this poem send good wishes 

As we eat, then wash the dishes 

And envision the better world that is to be
